After being jilted, the entire neighboring village was filled with deep regret.

She didn't understand any grand principles; she only knew that a son was the foundation of a woman's life, and she only hoped that her granddaughter could have a son to rely on.

Shen Yuezhang nodded obediently.

Madam Wan added, "Also, you must be diligent and respectful. Respect your mother-in-law but don't let yourself be bullied. If you are really wronged, go to your parents. Your child is your support. You must learn from Mo Chunxiang and not be willful or reckless."

Su Tai raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled, "Aunt, why are you bringing up Mo Chunxiang all of a sudden?"

Thinking that Su Tai had been busy packing her luggage in Shenjiazhuang and probably didn't know much about what was happening outside, Wan told her about what happened in Ximen Village.

"Mo Chunxiang had already remarried to a hunter in the mountains. She ran away without saying anything and suffered for dozens of days at the Xiong family. In the end, her husband found her and took her back."

Old Mo Tian died of anger after learning about his daughter's situation. The funeral was hastily arranged, and everyone said that Mo Dali was heartbroken. Without Old Mo Tian, ​​Mo Chunxiang was abandoned by everyone, and no one knew what would become of her!

Su Tai was speechless. She thought to herself that Mo Chunxiang was really asking for trouble. She used to resent them for not marrying Shen Yi and not living a good life. Now that her son had turned his life around, she couldn't even enjoy the blessings of her own son. Sure enough, people can't help but believe in fate.

After talking with them for a while, Madam Han turned to Su Chunlin and asked him to bring the box over and hand it to Su Tai. "This is the dowry I prepared for Yuezhang. We'll open it when Yuezhang gets married."

Ruan Xiaoyu and Shen Xiang also brought over the things they had prepared.

In addition to what Wan Shi, Su Yu, Su Yan and others gave, they ended up filling three more large boxes.

Seeing that it was about time, Su Tai told the caravan to set off immediately.

The group encountered Murong Jue's men as soon as they left Lizhou. The twins were also in the group. The two children rode on tall horses and had a rather imposing presence when they were not smiling.

Su Tai was overjoyed after seeing it clearly.

After the two sides met, Murong Jue stepped forward and explained, "Mother-in-law, I will escort you to the capital with Cong Yu and Yue An."

As he spoke, he looked into the car through the curtain and saw only Shen Yuezhang's serene profile.

Su Tai subconsciously moved, blocking his view.

Murong Jue withdrew his gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Su Tai asked in confusion, "Doesn't the coal mine need someone to stay there? You're escorting us to the capital and then coming back, only to return again for the wedding? Isn't that a lot of trouble?"

Murong Jue chuckled and shook his head. "Mother-in-law, you're overthinking it. I've asked Xue Mao and Xue Xiang to stay here and keep an eye on things. With them around, it won't matter if I leave for a few months. This is Xue You, a trusted confidant of mine. If I encounter any problems in the capital, I can ask him for help."

Su Tai and Xue You greeted the twins and then looked at them with delight.

"An'er, come sit in the car!"

Shen Yue'an decisively refused Su Tai's invitation, "Mother, I need to ride a horse to protect your sister. You can ride in the carriage. Giddy up!"

Shen Yuean walked briskly, and Su Tai looked at Shen Congyu.

Shen Congyu stared in surprise, "Mother, I definitely want to ride a horse! I'll talk to you properly later!"

Su Tai: "."

She just wanted to ask him if he wanted something to eat, but since he didn't appreciate it, she decided not to say anything.

Soon, a strong aroma of cream and tea wafted from the carriage.

The twins exchanged a glance as they smelled the aroma.

Shen Congyu couldn't help but come to Su Tai's carriage and ask, "Mother, did you eat cake with your eldest sister?"

Su Tai took a sip of tea and let out a comfortable sigh. "We'll talk after the carriage stops. You take good care of Mother and Eldest Sister. I'm rooting for you."

Shen Congyu felt like he'd kicked his own foot, pouting in grievance, "Mother, you can't treat me like this! I'm your precious son!"

Su Tai sneered, "Who was it that so confidently rejected me just now? You left without even saying a word. You can't go back on your word now, or I'll look down on you!"

Shen Congyu felt frustrated and wanted to cry.

At this moment, Shen Yue'an also arrived. "Mom, give me something to eat! I'm spineless, and I'm hungry and thirsty." Xue You looked at her in surprise.

They saw an oil paper package and a cowhide water bag being handed out from the carriage.

Shen Yuean accepted it without hesitation, but unexpectedly, the next moment, a slender hand handed out an exquisite ceramic cup.

Shen Yuezhang said crisply, "You drink this, and give that to them."

Shen Yuean understood, and instead of reaching out, she lowered her head and let Shen Yuezhang feed her.

Still wanting more after one cup, she caught a glimpse of Murong Jue staring intently at her out of the corner of her eye. Even more smug, she shouted, "Sister, I want more! Feed me!"

Shen Congyu, who was standing nearby, also jumped up and down, shouting, "I want some too! I want some too!"

Murong Jue could no longer bear it and stepped forward to grab Shen Congyu by the collar.

Shen Yue'an quickly handed over the oil paper package and water pouch, pleading, "Brother-in-law, please have mercy!"

"For me?" Murong Jue raised an eyebrow and glanced at the carriage.

Shen Yue'an nodded vigorously, "We're all family, it doesn't matter who gets it! Brother-in-law, try it, my sister's tea is so fragrant!"

"Thank you, Auntie. Thank you, Miss Shen."

Murong Jue thanked them and even included Su Tai.

Shen Yuezhang, sitting in the carriage, blushed and muttered softly, "If only I hadn't been so soft-hearted!"

She only offered food to her younger siblings because she felt sorry for them and wanted to spoil them, but she ended up feeling extremely embarrassed and angry.

Su Tai also felt that her youngest daughter was being unreasonable. When Shen Yue'an shamelessly came over and made a fuss about wanting food, no one gave her anything.

She immediately wilted.

Shen Yuezhang was soft-hearted after all, and in the end she still fed her two cups of tea and gave her a cake, which made Shen Congyu extremely envious.

The mother and her children put on a show every day. After hanging out with them for a few days, Murong Jue got the hang of their routine and would occasionally join in.

In this way, I didn't feel tired while traveling.

By the time they came to their senses, they were already ten miles outside the capital.

From here, Su Tai and her group parted ways with the caravan.

After the caravan entered the city, Murong Jue escorted them on their way.

As the carriage approached the city gate, before even entering the city, it spotted the Yong'an Marquis's carriage waiting nearby.

The steward and several servants hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects.

"This humble servant greets Madam. Madam, you must be tired from your journey. Please follow me."

Su Tai lifted the carriage curtain, intending to let Murong Jue go first, but Murong Jue spoke first, "Mother-in-law, it's not too late for me to take you to the Yong'an Marquis's residence before you leave."

Seeing his resolute attitude, Su Tai could no longer refuse.

Before the group even arrived at the Yong'an Marquis's residence, the various families received the news.

Princess Qingkang angrily smashed her cup. "Back then, the Empress Dowager intended for Furong to marry Murong Jue, but he was very cold and unwilling. Now he is so attentive and considerate to the Shen family, who have no background. This is clearly a slap in the face to my Zhao family!"

If Zhao Furong hadn't died, Murong Jue would have been her son-in-law. Now that her son-in-law is gone, it's bad enough that he's become the son-in-law of the Shen family. She hasn't forgotten Shen Congrong, who indirectly caused her daughter's death.

A maidservant rushed in and cautiously reported, "Princess, Princess Qingfeng has arrived." (End of Chapter)
